> Virtual Folders: Looks like the following cool use was never mentioned in the docs.
If you set a tab to a virtual folder like this:
vi:|t|<pick 8.m> //"Last 8"
... and then use "Set Home" and "Lock Home Zone" you can inject new locations into
the tab simply by selecting folders in the tree. So you can have a tab that only
shows you the last (newest) 8 files of any location you click on. Pretty cool.
> BTW, the yet undocumented "t" switch above means: Show the virtual folder path in
the tree if possible (by default virtual folders are not represented in the tree).
Note that this only works if the items listed in the virtual folder have a common
path. If they don't, or if there are no items at all, nothing will be selected in
the tree.
! Virtual Folders: Changing the location on a locked Virtual Folder tab resulted in
nothing but a short flicker. If the new location was another Virtual Folder, the
locked tab was permanently overwritten without questions asked. Fixed. Now the new
location is opened in the default or a new tab as expected.
! Paper Folders: Since 20230410, when switching from a Virtual Folder tab to a Paper
Folder tab, the list was empty instead of showing the Paper Folder contents. Same
problem when going directly from Virtual Folder to Paper Folder within a tab. Both
fixed.
